Isaiah 49 — Context

7

This is what the LORD, the protector of Israel, their Holy One, says to the one who is despised and rejected by nations, a servant of rulers:“Kings will see and rise in respect, princes will bow down, because of the faithful LORD, the Holy One of Israel who has chosen you.”

8

This is what the LORD says:“At the time I decide to show my favor, I will respond to you; in the day of deliverance I will help you; I will protect you and make you a covenant mediator for people, to rebuild the land and to reassign the desolate property.

9

You will say to the prisoners,‘Come out,’ and to those who are in dark dungeons,‘Emerge.’ They will graze beside the roads; on all the slopes they will find pasture.

10

They will not be hungry or thirsty; the sun’s oppressive heat will not beat down on them, for one who has compassion on them will guide them; he will lead them to springs of water.

11

I will make all my mountains into a road; I will construct my roadways.”

12

Look, they come from far away! Look, some come from the north and west, and others from the land of Sinim!

13

Shout for joy, O sky! Rejoice, O earth! Let the mountains give a joyful shout! For the LORD consoles his people and shows compassion to the oppressed.
